In the corner of the world, write a diary of Haijie for a day
The cartoonist Kono Shidai, the original manga "The Corner of the World" (この世界の國國に), based on Kure City, Hiroshima Prefecture, has been adapted into live-action Japanese dramas and animations several times. The most impressive thing is that The animated version with the voice of Noh Rena.
Riding a bicycle, crossing Wu Zhongzhen Street, towards the direction of the Ototo Bridge, is a gradually steep uphill road. Under the sun of the autumn tiger, I stepped on the pedals hard on the slope, trying to find a way to Otono Seto, and I wanted to visit the "Sunshine Statue" and "Kyomori Tomb" of Heira Kiyomori. When I rode to the high point of the strait where I could see the Second Otodo Bridge, I no longer had the energy to continue riding in the sun, so I had to stop and retreat back to the city center.
Travelers who come to Wu City cannot avoid this seaport city, where images of the sea, the military, and war can be seen everywhere. The bronze statue of Poseidon, the god of the sea in Greek mythology, stands at the entrance of the Yamato Museum; the Maritime Self-Defense Force Historical Archives in the shape of a submarine is an urban highlight not far from the Yamato Museum. Cycling around, you can stop on the coast in three or two times.
The ferry terminal next to the Yamato Museum has several routes to and from various ports in Hiroshima Prefecture. Walking on the sea street in the city center, I found out that the terminal actually has a ferry to Otono Seto, and even bicycles can be used. Peer, there is no need to climb the steep slope to find a way, so I was busy.
Unable to go to Otono Seto by accident, he found a coffee shop called "Port Town" on Haijie, and he recovered his blood to recharge his batteries, ready to pass the afternoon. Directly opposite the coffee shop is the naval port of the Navy Self-Defense Force. I ordered a seafood curry set, and the store gave me a seat with the best view.
Traveling in Japan, it can be said that there are very few opportunities to be insulated from seaports, seaports, seasides, and straits. However, it is not a fishing boat, but a port where seagulls are rarely seen, and groups of warships are parked, which is a rare visual experience during the journey.
Although the Self-Defense Force base cannot be freely visited, you can see the ships docked at a close distance. Compared with the past, when you happen to pass the gate of the Self-Defense Force base, you always feel a kind of tense and serious atmosphere. Here, you can watch as long as you like. Find the gap not covered by the fence and capture the two submarines.
Before leaving this city temporarily, I just watched the animation of "The Corner of the World", the daily life and physical and mental trauma of the difficult war that had been staged in Wu City, the salty taste of the sea breeze, and the sound of the tide slapping the bay are still still alive today. The unforgettable share of Haizi curry, the empty afternoon, is the memory of a person's Haijie in Wu City that year.
